Video cameras are gaining widespread acceptance as a tool to improve patient safety, ensure the quality of medical and dental care, teach future doctors and dentists, or document research and development procedures.

Not only do patients support the idea of having their procedures recorded, but such technology can also better inform efforts to determine complications during surgery and can become part of the patient’s electronic medical record for any future doctor or dentist.

Video is also a powerful and expected teaching tool for medical and dental school students in the classroom.
